Hobby Blogging: Article Marketing for Crochet Bloggers

Do you want more traffic to your blog or etsy shop? I know I do. I want to make more connections with crochet bloggers. This is why I do the Spotted Blogs post each week as well as the Finished Objects posts and more recently the Fresh Of tha Hook vlog. 

I want to know my readers - to share in the joy of crochet and also the frustrations of not being able to understand a pattern or having to frog a project for the 20th+ time.

As a Crochet Blogger, you may be wondering how article marketing can help you and your blog.

Article marketing can help you in 3 ways:
  1. Exposure. The more places your market can find you, the more routes to your website, the higher your traffic will be. Each article you write creates a separate trail someone can follow back to you – and become your customer. It is a great way to introduce a new product or pattern.
  2. Expert Status. When you put quality information out into the marketplace, you will establish yourself as a go-to expert that people can come to for advice and information. Example: Rhelena's articles on How to Read Crochet Patterns
  3. Stamp of Approval. When another website or blogger publishes your article that serves as a recommendation or “stamp of approval.” This validation serves as an introduction to that person’s audience, making them more receptive to your message. If you don’t put your content out there, this can’t happen.
Your potential readers or customers are out there looking for help; make sure you show up in the right place at the right time by creating great articles and sprinkling them throughout the web.

A couple of places you might start publishing your articles are:
